INSTRUMENTAL AND 
VOCAL RECITAL GIVEN 

Varied Program Is Enjoyed by 
Appreciative Audience 



Evidence of the fact that Professor 
Hull's music pupils are much enjoyed 
hy people of the community was shown 
in the large attendance at the recital 
last Monday evening, March 3, in the 
college chapel. The recital included sev- 
eral very young "musicians" and also 
several students who made their first 
appearance as Professor Hull's pupils. 
Judging from the applause, the entire 
program was received with enthusiasm. 
The program follows:

PACIFIC DEBATE TEAMS 
BATTLE WITH LINFIELD 



PAN-PACIFIC CONFERENCE 
TO BE HELD IN PORTLAND 



Two non-decision, two men debates 
were held with Linficld the week be- 
fore last on our disarmament question. 
The Mist debate was held here, in which 
the aftlrmative was upheld by Lela 
Jones and Laurene Gettman. They met 
upper classmen of Linlield. The main 
feature of the debate was a chart which I 
our girls presented; it diagramed their 
plan of complete, immediate disanna- 
ment and mentioned the other two 
points of their constructive argument 

The general consensus of opinion of 
those who attempted to judge the de- 
hate was that our girls won; however, 
the Linlield men put up a good fight. 

Lynn Hampton and. Ervin Diment 
went up to Lin field the following day, 
Tuesday, and upheld the negative of 
the same question. This debate was 
a very unique one — the Linfleld affirma- 
tive men seemed to give negative argu- 
ments to which our men could only 
agree. Each speech emphasized this 
until it became quite funny. The cli- 
max of the afternoon came when the 
final Linlield man suggested that the 
four debaters form a mutual agreement 
society. 

Both debates showed that the debat- 
ers have worked faithfully and are not, 
to be laughed at. The first gills' de- 
bate of the year was good and from 
all indications the following ones will 
lie very interesting. 



P. C'.'S FINAL CONTEST 

The Pacific College Prune Pickers 
closed their 11)23-30 basketball .season 
by squeezing out a 24-18 win In an over- 
time game played with Newberg High 
School, on the local floor, Wednesday, 
February 2G. 

The local team consisted of hut two 
regulars and three substitutes for three 
quarters. The half ended at ten-all but 
the younger boys from (he high school 
checked closely in the third quarter, 
at the same time adding three baskets 
to their own score The regulars were 
sent in at this stage and just managed 
to tie the score at eighteen-all as the 
regular game lime closed. The Prune 
Pickers added three goals to their score 
in the two minute overtime period and 
the game closed 24-1S for Pacific. 

Armstrong handled the whistle dur- 
ing the game. 



A student conference on international 
relations in the Pacific Ocean was held 
in Portland March 20, 21, 22. The con- 
ference considered such subjects as 
"The Growing Center of Interest— the 
Pacific;" "The Situation in China;" "Ob- 
stacles to Growth of Friendly Feeling 
Between China and United States;" and 
"The Occupation of So-Called Manchu- 
ria and Korea." 

The conference is being held every 
year to give student groups a greater 
understanding of the meaning of Pan- 
Pacific friendship. An attempt is made 
to have about half of the delegates for- 
eign students and half American. Such 
leaders as Or. Mez from U. of O.; Dr. 
Paul Meng of New York; Professor An- 
gus of British Columbia; Professor Man- 
dus of University of Washington; and 
Dr. Noble of Reed College, were secured 
to present the main features of each 
topic and to lead discussions on these 
topics. 

Some of the outstanding features of 
the conference were the banquet at the 
Old Heathman Hotel; the Oriental din- 
ner at the Chinese Tea Garden: and the 
Sunday morning chapel service at the 
First German Baptist Church. 

The whole atmosphere of the confer- 
ence was one of friendliness and striv- 
ing for better understanding and the 
difference of color only helped the pro- 
ei s of getting acquainted and making 
friends. 

The conference next year will be held 
at Reed College during Thanksgiving 
vacation.

PENNINGTON ANNIVERSARY 

President and Mrs. Pennington cele- 
brated their silver wedding anniversary 
Friday evening, February 2S, by giving 
a faculty pai ty. The student body met 
at the college building and then stole 
quietly beneath the living room window 
of the president's home and serenaded 
them. Thej sang the popular old songs 
such as "Auld Lang Syne." "Love's 
Old Sweet Song," and, as they were 
leaving, "Good Night, Ladies." The 
college song was also sung. Both the 
faculty and the student body gave them 
a silver gift. 

The sophomore class, who were hav- 
ing a roller skating parly, appeared 
at the serenade on skates. Following 
the singing they skated back to Delia 
Hanville's where waflles and punch were 
served. 



PACIFIC-O. S. C. DEBATE 

The P. (J. men s debate team met the 
freshman team from Oregon State Col- 
lege in their final debate for this sea- 
son, Friday night, March 7. The affirm- 
ative of the question — Resolved, that na- 
lions should' adopt a plan of complete 
disarmament excepting such forces as 
are necessary for police purposes — was 
upheld by Woodson Clark, George Han- 
selman, and Men-it Nash, from O. S. C. 
The P. C. team, consisting of Lynn 
Hampton, Elmore Jackson and Ervin 
Diment, debated the negative of the 
question. 

The debate, as anyone who heard it 
will tell you, was very interesting and 
worth while. The decision, 15 to 5 in 
favor of the affirmative, was given by 
the audience, but we fear that it was 
affected somewhat by the desire of the 
audience to show no partiality toward 
our own debaters.

SUZIE'S BIRTHDAY 

Members of the choir of the Friends 
church "sprung" a birthday surprise on 
Mary Sue Binford, Thursday, February 
2". She had been visiting La A'erne 
Hutchens and when the two girls went 
to Mary Sue's home early in the eve- 
ning, Mary Sue was greeted by a large 
crowd. Each choir member took a cov- 
ered dish and a cafeteria supper was 
served. The evening was spent in sing- 
ing. 



After hearina various reports, those 
who did not attend the Betty Booth 
conceit, presented as the ninth number 
of the Lyceum course last Wednesday 
evening, are thoroughly convinced that 
they missed one of the best programs 
ever given in the Pacific College chapel. 
The personnel, consisting of Betty 
Booth, Prof. Clark, and Prof. Brandt, 
who rank exceedingly high as enter- 
tainers, both dramatically and musical- 
ly, won a host of admirers with their 
charming manneis and pleasing person- 
alities. 

The program was divided into two 
parts, the first consisting of a group of 
violin, piano, and vocal solos by the 
trio: "Sunny Italy," "Funiculi Funicu- 
la," vocal solos by Miss Booth; Rondo 
in G Minor, Kreisler, Romance, Svenson, 
violin solos by Professor Clark. 

Next Miss Booth sang again, featur- 
ing two special numbers, one from Sam- 
son and' Delilah and one religious num- 
ber. They were, "My Heart at Thy 
Sweet Voice," Saint-Saens, "Thanks Be 
to God," Stanley Dixon. 

We then heard from Professor Brandt 
at the piano: "Polonaise," Franz Liszt. 

Again the audience was charmed by 
Betty Booth: "To The Bride," Peterson 
Berger; "To a Lovely Maiden," Miss 
Booth and Prof. Brandt. 

Playing two South American Tangos, 
Professor Clark was next heard from: 
"Mi Mocosita" (My Suitor), "El Cir'uja" 
(The 'Doc'). 

Miss Booth then sang: "Parting," 
Czechoslovaklan folk song, and "Under 
the Alder Tree," sequel to the above. 

Finally, at the requests of the audi- 
ence, Professor Brandt played several 
selections from well known operas, in- 
cluding Martha, The Student Prinee, 
The Bohemian Girl, Faust, Carmen, and 
II Trovatore. 

On the second part of their program 
was an original one act play, in which 
the characters were: 

Elizabeth Ritter Betty Booth 

Carl Ritter (her father) Prof. Brandt 

Richard Martin Prof. Clark 

Woven in throughout the playlet were 
many excellent musical selections of 
which the most popular was the Magic 
Melody, which was the name of the 
play. Other selections were The Last 
Rose of Summer (violin and piano); 
Rachmaninoff's Prelude In C Sharp Mi- 
nor (piano); The Kiss (piano and vocal): 
Kreisiei's Dance of the Goblins (violin 
and piano); and The Blue Danube 
Waltz (violin with piano duet).

the heart." — The Stranger.

May this serve to remind you of 
the Student Body play, "The Passing 
of the Third Floor Back," by Jerome 
K. Jerome, which will be presented 
in Wood-Mar Hall Friday, March 14, 
at 8:00 p. m. The cast and the play 
are both very good and an evening 
of excellent entertainment is prom- 
ised.

SPRING SPORTS 

Spring! Think of it, Spring again! I wonder, do we all 
grasp the full meaning of it ? Sure, it means the real sport sea- 
son. Baseball, tennis, track, and all the rest of them, that's 
where the fun comes in! But, stop a minute. It also means 
that the busy season for extra-curricular activities is at hand. 
Sure, but there are plenty of fellas for that — if I'm going out 
for tennis, I've got to study. Of course, that's what you're here 
for, to study, but that isn' all here is in college ! We have nearly 
eighty students, and there are enough activities in school for 
each of them to take part in lots more than ONE. Remember 
that when you go around looking for something to do.' 

We have to train hard for spring sports. And training is 
an awful grind. Day in, day out those who follow in its wake 
must obey her strict laws of sleep, eating, exercising, and mental 
attitudes in order that they may excel in one line of sport over 
all comers. 

Are we not, on a larger scale, training, each and every one 
of us for the strenuous game of life? If not, what are we here 
for? The game of life takes lots of wind, strength, endurance, 
as do our spring sports, but it also has infinitely greater glories, 
and worse defeats. So, in order that we may climb to its heights 
and rise above its defeats, it's up to us to TRAIN while we are 
here. I think it won't take us long to find out that TRAINING 
is nothing but RIGHT LIVING. 



It appears necessary for me to thank the Associated Student 
Body of Pacific College for my election to this office, but I think 
you'll all agree with me that my thanks can be very well shown 
if I take my office seriously and, with the aid of an exceedingly 
capable staff, endeavor to keep the CRESCENT up to its high 
standard which it has received in recent years through the ef- 
forts of Phil Gatch, Frank L. Cole, and Ralph E. Choate. 

It merely remains to be said that if the A. S. B. of Pacific 
backs the CRESCENT in the same manner that the entire ed- 
itorial and managerial staff have backed this issue, the CRES- 
CENT will sail to unknown heights this year. 

Which all goes to show that you elected a most capable co-ed 
in the person of La Verne Hutchens to the office of Associate 
CRESCENT Editor. 

In parting — 

Don't let your mouth droop, L. B. W. 



Doctor: "Have you taken every pre- 
caution to prevent the spread of con- 
tagion in your family?" 

Erastus: "Absolutely, doctuh. We've 
done bought a sanitary cup an' we all 
drink from it." 



Bob Shattuck: "Can you tell me if 
Wendell is up in his room?" 

Lincoln W.: "Sorry, there's nobody 
home in the upper story." 

Bob Shattuck: "Oh, excuse me, I'll 
ask someone else." 



THE DORMITORY MOUSE 

It's a cruel world. If you don't be- 
lieve it. just ask me. Out of a family 
of eight, I'm the only one that's left. 
I've decided that when I get to Con- 
gress, I'm going to have a law passed 
forbidding the use of any kind of traps 
by the residents of girls' dormitories. 
They're entirely too dangerous for mice 
—and men. 

• • * 

Oh, you're wondering who I am? Why, 
I'm the Dormitory Mouse. Address 
Kanyon Hall or Hoover Hall. Phone 
Green 20 or Blue 20. 

• • • 

I've decided that spring is here, but 
not because of the weather or the date. 
I go by more reliable signs than those, 
namely: baseball bats, tennis rackets — 
and dates. 

« • ♦ 

Oh, yes, another sign of spring — prac- 
ticing for track. Just ask Curtis how 
to do a broad jump off of a brick. 

• » ■» 

Prom all I've seen and heard, I've 
decided that Lillian must have been 
doing a new kind of parachuting. When 
the plane started to do a nose dive it 
seems that the other passenger, Winnie 
Woodward, was caught in one of the 
wings, and later rescued. Lillum's at- 
tempted parachute jump was not en- 
tirely successful, because of the ab- 
sence of a parachute. Everyone wishes 
her better luck the next time she tries 
it.

NEVER AGAIN 

Never again! Such was the fervent 
expression of George Donnell in the 
part of Bob which he played in the 
clever one act play presented in stu- 
dent chapel February 27. The part of 
Ruth, his fiance, was taken by Eliza- 
beth Ott; that of Betty, the stenograph- 
er, by Lillie Blake, and that of Jack 
by Ervin Diment. A very interesting 
program was presented before the play 
was given. Dennis McGuire sang the 
"Song of the Ballad Monger;" Phyllis 
Thorne gave the reading, "Entertaining 
Big Sister's Beau," Loyde Osburn play- 
ed two piano solos, "Meditation" and 
"Ase's Death." The Dusky Four, Frank 
Cole, Lincoln Wirt, Burton Frost, and 
Ralph Moore, accompanied by Loyde 
Osburn, entertained us with two num- 
bers, "Fotch Along De Hoe-cake" and 
"Three Little Darkies."

No, Mr. Perisho was not smoking last 
Thursday afternoon — he was only work- 
ing an experiment for his Chem. I stu- 
dents. Incidentally, cigarette smoke 
does not smell like gailic and the smoke 
lie generated did. The experiment il- 
lustrated the explosiveness of one of 
the compounds of phosporus. 



In France one knows when spring ar- 
rives by the return of the storks, ac- 
cording to the French I class. At P. C. 
we don't have to look up to see the 
infallible signs of spring, for we can 
look down for skinned knees — and brok- 
en roller skate straps.

P. C. BASKETBALL 

SEASON CLOSES 



The Pacific College basketball team 
has just completed' one of its most suc- 
cessful seasons, especially so in view 
of the fact that now Pacific need not 
say, "Well, we used to beat Linfield;" 
they can now say, "Yes, and we're still 
doing it." Altogether it has been a 
veiy successful season, packed full of 
fun, thrills, good basketball and, above 
all, fine sportsmanship. 

Suppose we run over the season 
again: 

In the first game of the season our 
group of star "Prune Pickers," with 
their newly acquired name journeyed 
to Reed College to defeat the Reed 
squad and to show promise of being 
a mighty hard team to beat. Next, 
however, after defeating the town truck 
drivers. Pacific hit a snag In the Port- 
land Y. M. C. A. team in a close game. 
During Christmas vacation the Old Stu- 
dents resurrected some old basketball 
stars, who weren't so o'.d after all, and 
managed to beat the Varsity by two 
whole points. Then Pacific out-pirated 
the Pirates of Albany to defeat that 
team by a decisive score. While Pa- 
cific was still rejoicing, Coach Wolf 
mov. .1 his basketball army, which in- 
cludes a- left-handed wizard, to Newberg 
and returned homeward with a victory 
securely fastened in their pockets. Next 
came another game with Albany which 
the Pirates won. Then our age-old ri- 
val, Linfield, repeated what she has 
been doing for several years and de- 
feated Pacific's team. The following 
gam. - ? was a game with the Methodist 
church, which the college won, although 
only three of the regulais played. A 
few days later Pacific journeyed to Mon- 
mout'i and then journeyed home again 
with about as many points as they had 
had before the game. 

Last, but certainly not least, came 
the final game with Linfield. This 
seems important enough to occupy a 
paragrpph all by itself. Pacific went 
into the game as the under dog, but 
the team certainly played' Linfield off 
their feet.. It was the best game the 
team played all year, and it was too 
much for Linfield. Few people realized 
that in addition to being the first vic- 
tory over Linfield in four years it was 
also a victory over a team which rank- 
ed second in the standings of the North- 
west conference. 

All together Pacific won six games 
and lost the same number, and scored 
3GC points to her opponents 302. 

As to personal records, the top posi- 
tion in scoring goes to Frank Cole, play- 
ing his last year for Pacific, with a per- 
sonal score of 123 points. He was also 
the lowest in number of fouls commit- 
ted. Frank was the best shot on the 
team, a fighter and a good sportsman. 
Pacific will have to look a long way to 
find a forward to fill his place. 

Next In personal scoring conies 'Fritz' 
Harle with 10C points and- ten personal 
fouls. 'Fritz' is a fine player and he 
i plays the game with all he has. He 
has another year left, so let's be glad 
of that. 

George Donnell, at center, comes next 
with 71 puts and fifteen personal fouls. 
George Is the freshman class' contribu- 
tion to the team and mighty big con- 
tribution too. 

Carl Sandoz, at guard, is next with 
41 points and 1G fouls. Carl is one of 
the big reasons for the Linfield victory 
and he isn't even a freshman yet! 

Bob Bissett, the mighty guard, made 
only 4 points and 17 fouls, but don't 
get the idea that he didn't do anything, 
for he did a lot — to the opposing team. 
Bob's value is not in his scoring abil- 
ity and the points he makes, but in 
the fact that he keeps the other team 
.from scoring. Bob Is a hard fighter and 
a big support to the team. 

Let's look forward to as good a sea- 
son next year as we have had. We 
forgot to mention Owen Baker, guard 
— so In closing, here's to P. C. basket- 
ball!

your cooperation in sending her ques- 
tions so that she may keep her job. 
Here is our list for this issue: —

Dear Aunty HRSFTHRS: 

I'm madly in love with three beau- 
tiful women in our school. One is 
blonde, one a brunette, and one is red- 
headed. Which complexion do you 
think my Gold "P" pin will match best, 
because I can't have all three? 

yours, I. Wunder Which 
Dear Wunder: 

Red-heads here in Pacific are few and 
far between. I would advise that since 
your competition is liable to be strong, 
your Gold "P" pin will make the big- 
gest hit with the red head. 

Hoping you succeed, 

Aunt HRSFTHRS.

Dear HRSFTHRS: 

I'm a blonde with red hair. My one 
trouble is lack of the ability to giggle: 
consequently I have no boy friends. 
Please help me! 

Just Me. 

Dear Just You: 

I shouldn't think a blonde with red 
hair would need to giggle to attract 
boy friends. I'm afraid you don't know 
your own powers of attractiveness. Try 
cultivating a spasmodic burst of tears, 
instead of won-ying about a giggle. 

Always thine.

test to find out if he loves me too?

Dear little Imin: 

If I were you, I would make sure 
what Bill Shakespeare thought of me, 
first. Then go ahead and test him all 
you wish. But — don't be shocked at 
the result of your tests, especially if 
you give him an intelligence test, — for, 
from what I judge of you — he can't

that I'm very gratified to know that 
you are now helping students like my-

My personal question is. Can you tell 
a meek maiden how to get a date with 
the most popular man in school for 
"The Passing of the Third Floor Back?" 
My heart is broken. 

Heartsick. 

Dear Heartsick: — 

Thank you for your introduction. 
Since you have four tickets to the play 
of your own to sell, I suggest that you

school — ticket of your own. Then he'll 
have one of his own too, and you pre- 
tend to lose your other tickets. Thus 
he'll have to take you — unless all of 
the meek maidens in P. C. do likewise.

He has been working all summer and 
fall. He said he noticed a difference 
in room fourteen; it did not seem like 
the old room. He said that he was 
surprised to see so many freshmen and 
noticed that there were many new faces. 
He expects to be back this spring — he 
will probably be around the tennis court 
a lot.

Y. M. C. A. 



February 26 

This meeting- was rather different 
from the usual Y. M. C. A. meeting. 
Tapers, written by P. C. girls, telling 
what they should like to find in the 
P. C. men, were read to the group. 
According to the girls, the model fel- 
low should be good-natured, courteous, 
neat in personal appearance, athletical- 
ly inclined, efficient, ambitious, clean, 
"full of pep," and an active as well as 
good student; he should have a sense 
of humor, peisonal pride (not conceit), 
high Ideals, ebaiaeter, and a respect 
for girls and older people. This criti- 
cism was taken seriously and undoubt- 
edly not a few P. C. boys deilved some 
benefit from it. 

March 3 

On March 3 Prof. Armstrong spoke 
to the Y. M. C. A. about methods of 
arousing more interest in the organiza- 
tion in order to make it a stronger one 
and increase the attendance of the meet 
ings. Mr. Armstiong says, "The V. M. 
C. A. gives the men in the college the 
proper attitude toward life." lie says 
that we should make it a stronger or- 
ganization by making its meetings moie 
interesting, that we should take these 
meetings seriously, and that we should 
discuss tilings in a more practical man- 
ner than theoretical one. 

During the latter pait of the meet- 
ing a discussion took place in which 
were brought up several ways of mak- 
ing the Y. W, C. A. a living organiza- 
tion.

SEZ US FOURTH YEARS— 

While announcing Betty Booth and 
her company, the Fourth Years under- 
stood President to say, "Miss Booth is 
going back to Vienna and 1 am sure 
we will all wish her a pleasant voyage, 
especially after this program. " After 
considering this from several angles we 
desire to misconstrue the meaning and 
reply that we would rather have her 
stay in America and come to Newberg 
again because of the program they pro- 
sented.

Were you among the sheep or the

ently existing between the two classes. 
A reformed goat might become a sheep.

We overheard the following conver- 
sation the other day: 

Sand<oz: "Say, Morse, did you see that 
dirty look she gave you?" 

Little Curtis (innocently): "Who?" 

Fourth Year Carl: "Mother Nature." 



February 20 

What the P. C. boy thinks the P. C. 
girl should be like was brought to light 
in Y. W. February 2G. If we may judge 
the relative importance of the quality 
by the number of times it was men- 
tioned, neatness is chief; with honesty, 
being a good sport, and activity in 
school life as close seconds. Some of 
the other requisites are friendliness, 
courage, self-respect, sense of humor, 
individuality, health, ambition, poise, 
definite interest in religion, sincerity, 
appreciation of nature, intelligence, 
alei tness, and frankness. 

March 6 

Members of the Y. W. were favoied 
on March (i with a selection by the 
Dormitory String Tiio, after which Miss 
Henrietta Thompson, International Stu- 
dent Secretary of Y. W., spoke on the 
subject, "The Wider Ties of Y. W." 
Miss Thompson explained that the prin- 
cipal obstacle to the formation of these 
ties is the fact that we are not able 
to visualize other countries and their 
problems, However, the student organ- 
izations oie well on the way to over- 
look this difficulty, and Ibis year they 
have undertaken to erect a Student 
House for the use of the students of 
a university in Bulgaria. At the pres- 
ent time there is no campus life theie; 
students are living crowded together 
in cellars and garrets; many have only 
one meal a day. All these conditions 
tend to make disease very prevalent, 
tubeiculos ; s having increased from 3r> 
pet" cent to 50 per cent in two years, 
"We may well feel proud of having a 
part in the work being done by the stu- 
dent organizations this year," stated 
Miss Thompson. 



DEDICATED TO J. H. D., Jr. 

Breathes there a man with lungs so 
dead, 

That ne'er to them chlorine hath fed. 
Through some slight mishap in the 

Chem. Bab; 
Whose throat hath ne'er within him 

burned, 

As down goes the chlorine; and too late 
he learned 
His error. His throat is all agab. 
if such these breathes, go, mark him 
well! 

For him no minstrel raptures swell; 
High though his titles, proud his name, 
Boundless his wealth as wish can claim, 
Despite those titles, power, and pelf, 
The wrench concentred! all in self. 
Diving, shall forfeit fair renown, 
And, doubly dying, shall go down 
To the Chem. Dab. from whence he 

sprung 
Ignorant — inexperienced. 

— Sir Walter Scott (?)

WIIOOPIE CHAPEL 

Whoopee! Not a yell from the root- 
ing section, but the subject of a very 
interesting chapel talk given February 
25 by Miss Helen Burns, the National 
Field Secretary of the W. C. T. U. She 
emphasized the idea that "whoopee" is 
wasted time, wasted wit, wasted speed, 
and wasted life. She said that prohibi- 
tion prevails from a spiritual stand- 
point, from an educational standpoint 
and from an economic .standpoint. She 
gave the slogan of the organization 
which she represents as being, "Give 
prohibition its chance. The liquor traf- 
fic had its day." She reminded us of 
the fact that the liquor traffic had been 
in sway for about 300 years when pro- 
hibition was introduced. It cannot be 
expected to change in so few years 
the results of many years.
